Now that we have new hosting, I'm reinstating the activation emails. I don't want anybody setting up an account here where they can't recover passwords, and so on. If Comcast or Earthlink starts blocking legitimiate opt-in confirmation emails, you guys will just have to get email from a real ISP somewhere. :)

So, for you new users, if you don't get a confirmation email, don't click "resend" a bunch of times! Instead, check your spam folders and (if all else fails) send me email!

IF you tried to sign up within the last two or three weeks but never received your activation email, this is probably because reverse DNS was not working. This has been fixed. Sorry about that; this server was part of the massive fsckvps/vaserv hack. I think people who vandalize computer systems should be publicly flogged.
